Abstract

A method estimates statistics of properties of transactions processed by a memory sub-system of a computer system. The method randomly selects memory transactions processed by the memory sub-system. States of the system are recorded as samples while the selected transaction are processed by the memory sub-system. The recorded states from a subset of the selected transactions are statistically analyzed to estimate statistics of the memory transactions.
